Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Place your blender on a flat surface and ensure it's properly assembled.
- Measure out 2/3 cup (110g) of Greek yogurt and add it to the blender. Greek yogurt gives the smoothie a creamy texture and a boost of protein.
- Measure 2/3 cup (160g) of coconut milk. Pour it into the blender with the Greek yogurt. Coconut milk adds a rich, creamy flavor and keeps the smoothie dairy-free for those who need it.
- Measure 1.5 teaspoons (6g) of vanilla extract and add it to the mixture. Vanilla extract enhances the overall flavor profile of the smoothie, providing a sweet and aromatic essence.
- Drop in 3 ice cubes (70g) for a chilled, refreshing texture. The ice helps to thicken the smoothie as well.
- Measure 1 tablespoon (14g) of coconut oil and add it to the blender. Coconut oil adds a subtle coconut flavor and healthy fats.
- Measure 1 cup (160g) of frozen blueberries and add them to the blender. Blueberries provide a burst of flavor, antioxidants, and a beautiful purple color.
- Secure the blender lid tightly. Start blending on a low setting, then gradually increase to high. Blend until all the ingredients are fully combined and the consistency is smooth. This should take about 1-2 minutes.
- If the smoothie is too thick, you can add a bit more coconut milk and blend again until you reach your desired consistency. If it’s too thin, you can add a few more frozen blueberries or another ice cube and blend again.
- Once blended, pour the smoothie into a glass. You can garnish with a few whole blueberries or a sprinkle of shredded coconut if desired.
- Serve immediately to enjoy all the fresh and vibrant flavors.
Tips:
- For an extra creamy texture, use full-fat coconut milk.
- If you prefer a sweeter smoothie, add a tablespoon of honey or maple syrup.
- To enhance the nutritional value, consider adding a handful of spinach or a scoop of protein powder.
- Use fresh blueberries if available, but make sure to add a few extra ice cubes to maintain the chilled texture.
- Blend the smoothie until completely smooth to ensure all ingredients are well incorporated.
In just a few simple steps, you can enjoy a delicious and refreshing Blueberry Coconut Vanilla Smoothie. Packed with antioxidants, healthy fats, and a delightful blend of flavors, this smoothie will quickly become a favorite in your recipe rotation. Perfect for any time of day, it's a great way to enjoy a healthy treat.
